This request is defined in

"An alphabetical typewrit

listed by full legal names
must be turned in to the Stu

office hours by the end of the
second week of each semes

of the student officers (form
to be obtained from the divi

be turned into the Student

after each election."
Sukey Tinan, recording sec

John Hoerner, co-chairman

the whole discussion with the
candidates was likely to

Disagreement
George Moyer, Law college
representative, disagreed
wim tne committee report.
"A lot of people on this
campus yote. This is the best
way in the world to inform
them. As far as no one ask

can sure learn how to ask;
questions before the candi

ask questions now than after
they are .in office," Moyer
asserted.
Neil Ferguson, the third
chairman of the committee,
warned members that such
a discussion "might turn into
a political battle." He said
he felt more could be gained
by having the new governor
appear following the election
as his committee report sug
